The Flirtini

Our first reaction when we tasted this drink was it was the most like something you'd pay a lot of money for at a trendy cocktail lounge. We improvised slightly because the recipe calls for champagne but we didn't feel like opening a whole bottle just for the couple of ounces we'd need here so we used a split of sparkling wine instead. Delicious!

Per Serving:

1 oz. Vodka

1/2 oz. Cointreau

1 oz. Pineapple juice

1/2 oz. Cranberry juice

1 Teaspoon lime juice

2 oz. Champagne or sparkling wine

Shake over ice and garnish with a slice of pineapple and/or a maraschino cherry
